Moment by Moment

Recently I was placed on bed rest for 5 days and found myself fighting very different thoughts. After hours of watching the TV and sinking deep into a place of uselessness I decided to read. What a wonderful insight I was given by reading 'Today Matters' by John Maxwell

Time is our most precious commodity

To know the value of one year... ask the student who failed the final exam.
To know the value of one month... ask the mother of a premature baby.
To know the value of one week... ask the editor of a weekly newsmagazine.
To know the value of one day... ask the wage earner who has six children.
To know the value of one hour... ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To know the value of one minute... ask the person who missed the plane.
To know the value of one second... ask the person who survived the accident.
To know the value of one millisecond... ask the Olympic silver medalist.

Our time is priceless.

"Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds. Discard them and their value will never be known. Improve them and they will become the brightest gems in a useful life."

Ralph Waldo Emerson
